We have been extra watchful and careful since, we just make sure she eats before putting her to bed and even give her canned food if she doesn't seem to eat enough of her dry. We didn't want to use canned food but we figured it was more important that she just eat. Also as already said we make sure she has food in her crate during the night too and that we always have honey or corn syrup with us when we take her anywhere just in case. Not an expert by no means, we're newbies at this, just wanted to let you know our experience with it. Try not to worry too much, though I know that isn't easy. It took quite a while before I stopped holding my breath each morning when I went to check on her when we got up! Good luck. Debbie
has your puppy been bile acid tested? Yorkies and maltese should have bats done since it runs so ramped in the breed to get a base line prior to anesthesia as well as medications

I would strongly recommend it in pups having hypoglycemic episodes regularly
